Very nice, I drove that loco from didcot to Doncaster the day it came out of the paint shop, by the time I got to Birmingham I had a hell of a headache and was probably high as a kite off the paint fumes, well I didn’t think I was high off the fumes but the leprechaun sat in the 2nd mans seat kept telling me I was 

 

boy was she shiny though

Did the instructions that came with it have Class 31 instructions printed on one side and Class 60 the other - my Colas and DB ones from last batch both did…?

 

Having just taken delivery of 60095 - yep.

And the detail pack only includes slotted deflector plates - so useless if you want to fit full buffer beam detail without the tension locks.

 

In the words of Radio 5's 606 Chris Sutton

"Come on Hornby, you're better than that".

 

It's shame as the 60 is (IMO) Hornby's best ever diesel offering and is still in my top 3, but is in danger of slipping out of contention due to daft QA/QC issues.
